Title: The Real Bout 2 Casual Matchmaking thread
Post by: steamwolf on September 07, 2011, 09:30:27 PM
This thread will serve the purpose of helping people get in some matches for RB2 if they're looking for competition or just some casual play. A statement I have heard many times: "I always wanted to play this game but nobody ever plays." This is a self-fulfilling prophecy my friends. That means if we DON'T play, obviously nobody will be playing! In this thread, all you need to do is post that you're looking to play/reply to someone else's request and then hook up with either GGPO, Supercade, or Arclive and play! I'll start things off...


Looking to play some RB2 today to brush up on my skills. Willing to teach anything to anyone who is unfamiliar with the game anything I can. Any questions I can't answer personally, I will find the answer to. Reply to this thread if you wanna get in some matches with me.

Tuesdays and Wednesdays are the easiest times to catch me. I tend to be on and off all day since those are my off days. Work day wise I'm usually on from 3:30P.M - 6P.M. EST. It can vary a little, but I usually sleep in the morning, pick up my step daughter from school, then play till dinner. Though like most scheduled events, I can usually work a little around it here and there.

All right this Tuesday sounds good. I'll send you a PM and make sure to be available that day. Just word of a warning: anytime this week after 6:00 PM EST I will probably not be around.

ggs to Mr. Bakaboy! Your Andy and Mai are decent keep it up!

Tested the new supercade today as well. Its back to being what it was with seeing each game every person has whose currently online and the netcode felt better than before. Less lag, no useless friends list, and I was playing Bakaboy who was in central I'm on east coast. Lets get some more RB2 going in here!

What time zone? As long as I'm up around then (usually sleep before work but can make exceptions) I'm game.

If the two of you want to take turns playing with me involved in sort of a three way matchup let me know I'm down for it.

I'm Venezuelan, my country is GMT -4:30 so i think you can figure out what time is it in your country when i'm at  8pm.

Steamwolf: I like that idea. Arclive is JUST PERFECT for doing 3 or 4-ways, arcade style (winner keeps playing, loser go last in line and the next player go aagainst the winner) :D. Its really fun that way

You're a little far but it shouldn't be an issue with supercade and GGPO. I have found arclive to lag quite a bit but it has been a few months. We can try but I'd much rather us take turns on GGPO or Supercade.

DRN: I'll always play you any time.

We could always have a 4 way casual set with the four of us. If you guys wanna try that, give me some dates and times you'll be available.

Do it. Nobody ever did a writeup for Xiangfei or Sokaku and I'm always eager to add more knowledge to the RB2 wiki.

I think Sokaku has some weird glitchy infinite.

He does but it's not even worth mentioning or trying to do. For now, my focus has really shifted to KoF XIII due to to the iminent release so my input into this game has been limited but hey, I'll never give up on RB2! And I'm always up for casuals. I'm really anticipating the PSN release which HOPEFULLY will be here soon.

Just wanna let everyone know who plays RB2 that while this thread will remain open for regular matchmaking, my time dedicated to RB2 is going to be slim, and I probably will not do any more RB2 FT10 events until the game either comes out on PSN, or sometime after the first of the year but maybe not even then. Planning for Final Round XV and CEO 2012 will of course, limit my time on what I can play ontop of college and (hopefully) a job.

I love RB2, Fatal Fury, Garou, etc...but I have to focus on what's out now and with KoF XIII looming around the corner, updates to the Wiki is going to be much more frequently needed and thus, my time will have to be dedicated to that and helping to expand the KoF community. Ontop of that, I still intend to compete in SSFIV:AE and/or SFxT, as I like the game(s) and fully intend to participate in tournaments in my area. I COULD focus more on RB2 if I cut out any extra time dedicated to SF, but until such time as RB2 comes out on PSN, it somehow miraculous explodes and becomes popular in American tournaments, or a new Fatal Fury title comes out? I just can't justify doing that.

I don't foresee any reason why I can't get any matches in casually here and there, but just PM me to make sure I get the message as I may not always check this thread. I do believe I might start doing FT10 events sometime after the first of the year but I can't say for sure. I need to make sure college + work + tournament preparing + wiki editing won't put too much on me as is. Thank you to everyone who has played even one match in RB2 with anyone around here cause you helped support the cause. All of you don't stop playing each other in it, even for a little bit, as it's a game worth time spent. I imagine should the tournament season distract me too much, that I will be able and willing to host the RB2 FT10 events again sometime after CEO this summer. If you don't see any before then, look forward to them and always hit me up if you wanna play sometime. Never hurts to ask! Just be aware my schedule is getting pretty busy now :(

I want some challengers in RB2. I'll record our matches for analysis, and of course, homo-genius moments.
